      This new translation of the Gospels offers a definitive edition of these foundational texts, crafted by respected translator Sarah Ruden. For centuries, the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have shaped Christianity and influenced the modern Western world. They present the life and ministry of Jesus Christ as four distinct narratives, each with complex origins and inherent contradictions. Ruden’s translation emphasizes the original Greek, inviting readers to engage with the Gospels on their own terms. With precision and sensitivity, it provides an accessible version of the text, enriched by illuminating footnotes and a discursive glossary that clarify word choices and phrasings. The Gospels are presented in their original context, reflecting contemporary languages, cultures, and the unique drama and humor of their time, free from later interpretations. This translation encourages a fresh understanding of these four evangelists and highlights the ancient world as a foundation for modern thought. It serves as a welcoming platform for diverse readers, fostering debate, discussion, and inspiration for years to come.

      Il bestseller che ha scaldato le classifiche inglesi e americane. Un libro incredibilmente originale. Il romanzo più rock dell'anno. Daisy Jones & The Six: il gruppo rock più mitico di tutti i tempi. I loro concerti riempivano gli stadi in tutto il mondo, le loro canzoni hanno acceso le notti di un'intera generazione. La loro storia è il racconto di un'ascesa folgorante, dalle prime esibizioni nei peggiori locali di Los Angeles al successo planetario. È l'incarnazione stessa di un'epoca e di uno stile di vita - sesso, droga e rock'n'roll. È la sintesi di un'alchimia perfetta, non solo sul palco: l'amore tra Daisy Jones - la splendida vocalist, spirito libero e inafferrabile - e Billy Dunne, il frontman carismatico e dannato. Eppure, il 12 luglio 1979, dopo un concerto memorabile, il gruppo è scoppiato. Nessuno ha mai saputo perché... Fino a oggi. Musicisti della band, manager, fan, parenti e amanti: sono tutti testimoni di questa storia, ma ognuno ha la sua versione dei fatti. E oggi, a quarant'anni di distanza, sono finalmente pronti a raccontarla. Un romanzo a più voci che crea una leggenda. Una geniale prova d'autore. Una lettura che ci rende inevitabilmente fan di una band di cui poi vorremo ascoltare ogni singola canzone.

      When Harold Ross founded The New Yorker in 1925, he called it a “comic weekly.” And although it has become much more than that, it has remained true in its irreverent heart to the founder’s description, publishing the most illustrious literary humorists in the modern era—among them Robert Benchley, Dorothy Parker, Groucho Marx, James Thurber, S. J. Perelman, Mike Nichols, Woody Allen, Calvin Trillin, Garrison Keillor, Ian Frazier, Roy Blount, Jr., Steve Martin, and Christopher Buckley. Fierce Pajamas is a treasury of laughter from the magazine W. H. Auden called the “best comic magazine in existence.”
